A method is developed that allows analysis of quantum Monte Carlo simulations to identify errors in trial wave functions. The purpose of this method is to allow for the systematic improvement of variational wave functions by identifying degrees of freedom that are not well-described by an initial trial state. We provide proof of concept implementations of this method by identifying the need for a Jastrow correlation factor, and implementing a selected multi-determinant wave function algorithm for small dimers that systematically decreases the variational energy. Selection of the two-particle excitations is done using quantum Monte Carlo within the presence of a Jastrow correlation factor, and without the need to explicitly construct the determinants. We also show how this technique can be used to design compact wave functions for transition metal systems. This method may provide a route to analyze and systematically improve descriptions of complex quantum systems in a scalable way.

We present a method for finding individual excited states energy stationary points in complete active space self-consistent field theory that is compatible with standard optimization methods and highly effective at overcoming difficulties due to root
flipping and near-degeneracies. Inspired by both the maximum overlap method and recent progress in excited state variational principles, our approach combines these ideas in order to track individual excited states throughout the orbital optimization process. In a series of tests involving root flipping, near-degeneracies, charge transfers, and double excitations, we show that this approach is more effective for state-specific optimization than either the naive selection of roots based on energy ordering or a more direct generalization of the maximum overlap method. Furthermore, we provide evidence that this state-specific approach improves the performance of complete active space perturbation theory. With a simple implementation, a low cost, and compatibility with large active space methods, the approach is designed to be useful in a wide range of excited state investigations.
The recent development of the density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) method in multireference quantum chemistry makes it practical to evaluate static correlation in a large active space, while dynamic correlation provides a critical correction t
o the DMRG reference for strong-correlated systems and is usually obtained using multi-reference perturbation (MRPT) or configuration interaction (MRCI) methods with internal contraction (ic) approximation. These methods can use active space scalable to relatively larger size references than has previously been possible. However, they are still hardly applicable to systems with active space larger than 30 orbitals because of high computation and storage costs of high-order reduced density matrices (RDMs) and the number of virtual orbitals are normally limited to few hundreds. In this work, we propose a new effective implementation of DMRG-MRCI, in which we use re-constructed CASCI-type configurations from DMRG wave function via the entropy-driving genetic algorithm (EDGA), and integrate with MRCI by an external contraction (ec) scheme. This bypasses the bottleneck of computing high-order RDMs in traditional DMRG dynamic correlation methods with ic approximation and the number of MRCI configurations is not dependent on the number of virtual orbitals. Therefore, DMRG-ec-MRCI method is promising for dealing with larger active space than 30 orbitals and large basis sets. We demonstrate the capability of our DMRG-ec-MRCI method in several benchmark applications, including the evaluation of potential energy curve of Cr$_{2}$, single-triplet gaps of higher n-acene molecules and the energy of Eu-BTBP(NO$_3$)$_3$ complex.
Site-occupation embedding theory (SOET) is an alternative formulation of density-functional theory (DFT) for model Hamiltonians where the fully-interacting Hubbard problem is mapped, in principle exactly, onto an impurity-interacting (rather than a n
on-interacting) one. It provides a rigorous framework for combining wavefunction (or Green function) based methods with DFT. In this work, exact expressions for the per-site energy and double occupation of the uniform Hubbard model are derived in the context of SOET. As readily seen from these derivations, the so-called bath contribution to the per-site correlation energy is, in addition to the latter, the key density functional quantity to model in SOET. Various approximations based on Bethe ansatz and perturbative solutions to the Hubbard and single impurity Anderson models are constructed and tested on a one-dimensional ring. The self-consistent calculation of the embedded impurity wavefunction has been performed with the density matrix renormalization group method. It has been shown that promising results are obtained in specific regimes of correlation and density. Possible further developments have been proposed in order to provide reliable embedding functionals and potentials.
An algorithm is presented to calculate the electronic local time-dependent Greens operator for manganites-related hamiltonians. This algorithm is proved to scale with the number of states $N$ in the Hilbert-space to the 1.55 power, is able of paralle
l implementation, and outperforms computationally the Exact Diagonalization (ED) method for clusters larger than 64 sites (using parallelization). This method together with the Monte Carlo (MC) technique is used to derive new results for the manganites phase diagram for the spatial dimension D=3 and half-filling on a 12x12x12 cluster (3456 orbitals). We obtain as a function of an insulating parameter, the sequence of ground states given by: ferromagnetic (FM), antiferromagnetic AF-type A, AF-type CE, dimer and AF-type G, which are in remarkable agreement with experimental results.
We present a simple, robust and black-box approach to the implementation and use of local, periodic, atom-centered Gaussian basis functions within a plane wave code, in a computationally efficient manner. The procedure outlined is based on the repres
entation of the Gaussians within a finite bandwidth by their underlying plane wave coefficients. The core region is handled within the projected augment wave framework, by pseudizing the Gaussian functions within a cut-off radius around each nucleus, smoothing the functions so that they are faithfully represented by a plane wave basis with only moderate kinetic energy cutoff. To mitigate the effects of the basis set superposition error and incompleteness at the mean-field level introduced by the Gaussian basis, we also propose a hybrid approach, whereby the complete occupied space is first converged within a large plane wave basis, and the Gaussian basis used to construct a complementary virtual space for the application of correlated methods. We demonstrate that these pseudized Gaussians yield compact and systematically improvable spaces with an accuracy comparable to their non-pseudized Gaussian counterparts. A key advantage of the described method is its ability to efficiently capture and describe electronic correlation effects of weakly bound and low-dimensional systems, where plane waves are not sufficiently compact or able to be truncated without unphysical artefacts. We investigate the accuracy of the pseudized Gaussians for the water dimer interaction, neon solid and water adsorption on a LiH surface, at the level of second-order M{o}ller--Plesset perturbation theory.
